An ambitious neo-noir mystery that makes the most of its mix of weighty themes, distinctive characters, and richly imaginative world.

FANATICAL ABOUT FILM!
Movies are our religion and the theater our church. Our gods are named Tarantino, Anderson and Scorsese.
We attend services 3-4 times a week and take our communion in the form of soda and popcorn. We offer up these reviews in hopes of pleasing our deities.
Please share your own comments on our reviews. We encourage all forms of respectful debate. We are, after all, “Fanatical About Film”!

“The Apprentice”
This is a story that highlights the darker sides of ambition and power, and it certainly doesn’t paint a very flattering picture of either man.
“Smile 2”
Provides a satisfying continuation of the first installment, but also reinvents the original in a way that’s fresh and exciting.
“Chasing Chasing Amy”
This documentary about the personal impact of Kevin Smith’s problematic LGBTQ+ film “Chasing Amy” is a love story about a movie, but also one about learning to love yourself.
“Me, Myself & the Void”
It may not be perfect, but the film’s emotional depth, earnest sentiment, and overall heart certainly is in the right place.
“Dead Mail”
Those with a penchant for films that defy conventional genre boundaries will find this uneven retro thriller especially rewarding.
